The European Values Study and the Wrold Values Survey continue their cooperation also in dissemination activities. The two research group proposed the session “European Values Study and World Values Survey: Exploring New Survey Findings and Addressing Methodological Challenges”.

The session, organized by Vera Lomazzi, Kseniya Kizilova, and Ruud Luijkx, welcomed proposals addressing substantive and/or methodological aspects of value research making use of the EVS/WVS data -solely or in combination with other types of data- to address a broad scope of issues, including political culture and political attitudes, support for democracy and political participation, perceptions of gender equality and moral values, identity and trust, civil society, corruption, solidarity, and migration among the others.
The session also invited papers addressing the projects’ methodological aspects, including challenges and limitations such as reliability and equivalence of employed scales and indicators, non-responses, combining self- and interviewer-administered mode and other. The panel particularly invites papers comparing findings collected via different survey methods in the same countries allowing to estimate the reliability of online surveys and discuss challenges and prospects of their combined use.

Following the peer review process, selected authors will present their value research in three sub-sessions:
